I have read that some dogs do have problems with the Himalayan chews. I guess it all depends on if they are getting enough of the chew to actually eat it. The Himalayan chew is made out of some sort of goat milk product I think.
Some of the bully sticks are way too soft and dogs can chew off pieces of them. I did give Gracie one of the poorer quality bully sticks once and we did have a problem with it. I now only buy her the Best Bully brand and I only buy them big enough that she cannot eat them. She is a pretty small dog so I get her the regular thickness in the 12" length. If your dog is a real fierce chewer and can bite off pieces I would get the thicker ones or even the braided ones. They should be able to chew and soften some of it but not bite off pieces.
Now that Gracie is a grown up she doesn't chew as much or for as long a period of time. When she goes back to the chew it has hardened up again and she has to soften it up again. She never really eats pieces of it. She just chews like a dog would chew a raw bone. |
